ChuckPloughing my way through this at the moment. Really like it, i know that some of the geek/nerd/gamer references are a bit off, but most of it's good. It's good cast, can't go wrong with Jayne! The show has some great cross show references, lots to the OC, grrrr, and a great line about Oceanic flight 815. I was most satisfied with this line from the 11th ep. Chuck: "I'm not really a car guy, pretty shiny though..." Jayne/Casey: "Yeah, she's shiny..." He, even if that wasn't intentional, it made me happy. Discuss!?!? EDIT: Heh, also just noticed, the sound the video conference thing makes when it ends is the ba-bing sound the gameboy would make when you switch it on.

I think Chuck is the exact type of nerd-cool crossover guy that I would want in real life, so maybe I'm biased. Face it, if they cast a full on Comic Book Guy in that role, it'd be gross and no one would watch it. He'd live at home in his parents' basement, be 35, obese, and have like sweat and pizza stains all over his shirt. He wouldn't make a realistic spy.
Also, it doesn't matter if he's nerdy IRL since he's an actor, Chay. I think Jeff is talking about the actor's look.
I think the nerdiest thing about him is his friends, his interests, and his lack of self confidence. The shippy parts allow for some romance and conflict as you get to root for Chuck to grow a pair and like, be a man. I can agree with it being a little too fast, but we are living in the 00s, Jeff. Kids in 90210 are having blow jobs in the first episodes, so Chuck has got to compete somehow.

Totally agree.. a coworker convinced me to start watching it... we began watching it the night shift and its absolute great.. i mean.. its great and east entertainment.. no mega-obscure plots, no mega-archs, just fun and i love it.. its quite pleasant to watch for some reason and its clear its aimed to us internet-freaks of 16-35 year old. good cast, can't go wrong with Jayne! Absolutelly. when i started to watch it .. it was sudden.. one night at work..a co-worker convided us to all watch it wich means of course i had absolutely no idea of the plot or cast.. when Adam appeared in screen i was "Hey! Its Jayne!! cool!". But its actually better than that.. every time Adam appears you know you are going for fun. Same as every time the scene goes for Buy More

Just started watching this show since Battlestar, Scrubs, and Life on Mars all end after next month and I need to find some new TV shows to watch. Definitely hooked early on. It must have been the smoking hot Sarah character or the possiblity of Jayne-ish humor from Adam Baldwin, but I've definitely taken a liking to it after downloading the torrent of the first season.

wow this series is an absolutely wonderfull piece of surprises.. its totally made for us sci.fi geeks.. and whats with the parents!
Awesome's father is Bruce Boxleitner , also known as Captain John Sheridan , main character in Babylon 5
Chuck's father is Scott Bakula, also known as Captain Johnathan Archer , main character of Star Trek Enterprise
Sarah's father is Gary Cole.. also known as Captain Mathew Gideon , main character of Babylon 5: Crusade
and the CIA general Graham is Tony Todd who was the captain of the destroyer Charon in Babylon 5: A call to arms (also a major character of the movie)
Are they recluting starship captains on porpouse? Should i expect Kate Mulgrew, Patrick Stewart, Avery Brooks, Will Shatner , Bruce Mcgill , Kenneth Colley. maybe Dennis Lawson .. to appear in the future?
